We had a major funds drive, led by many major corporations in Kenya, where real money was raised. The aim of the fundraising was to fix the problem then, once and for all, one by immediately attending to the immediate hunger needs of the population. Two, coming up with sustaining strategies of keeping hunger at bay and implementing those strategies. Now what is this I am seeing on TV? What did Kenya Red Cross do with all that money?

This is the real famine.

Those who know what had gone on during Kenyans4Kenya know it was a corporates show off affair.

you thought that the 300 million that the red cross pledged to use will sort out famine in turkana? turkana is twice the size of nairobi, nyanza, central and western combined!

1. What is the population?
2. What size of the total area is inhabited?

...That was to supplement government's efforts, do an intense advocacy and ensure that stuff is happening. Those companies prospecting for oil there should feed those people nna wajilipe baadaye!

Maybe Red Cross used the money to buy ambulances which are being leased to county governments for 600k per month.
